On-Campus Event for Higher Achievement Scholars
|
|
|
Middle school students from Homewood and the Hill District participating in the Higher Achievement Scholars program visited CMU to interact with engineering students from the Tau Beta Pi (TBP) honor society and the Carnegie Mellon Racing (CMR) team. TBP students involved school kids in tower building activities while explaining principles of structural engineering.

"What is Research": Seminar to School Teachers
|
|
|
Members of Carnegie Mellon Racing (CMR) team gave a seminar to middle and high school educators who were attending an outreach program organized by Gelfand Center. Prof. Singh and undergraduate students Sascha Demetris and Kyle Mueller explained CMU's race car activities to the teachers. Students also discussed how they got interested in engineering while attending high school.
